Meet our Students: Kiki

A: First, I applied to do a kiltmaking internship but instead Gordon recommended I joined the course.

Q: What were you doing prior to the course?

A: I worked in a factory here, in Scotland. Before that I did an apprenticeship in Germany as a tailor.

Q: How are you finding the course so far?

A: Very good so far. I’ve learned a lot. A lot of new things to learn because I’m not Scottish, so when I came here I didn’t know anything about kilts.

Q: What are your plans after finishing the course?

A: That a good question. My scholarship will end at the start of July, then I will move back home. Then I will apply for kiltmaking apprenticeships in Germany – there are not many, so I will have to see if I get in. I also want to apply for a design course in university. So, who knows… it will all work out though!
